Camping & Trekking: Camping and trekking are the most blissful activities in Munnar where you can have plenty of scopes to trek to high elevations like the Top Station and Echo Point.

The most suitable places for mountain biking are Marayoor, Suryanelli, Kundala, Anamudi Shola and Vandanmedu. Speed up your bike along the hairpin bends and the curving roads, while enjoying the beauty of the meadows and green hills. Contact the resorts and hotels here to arrange biking trips. You may also rent a cycle from any of the rental services like the Gokulam Bike Hire and KDHP House in Idduki District. The thrill and experience is beyond words!

Capture bird species and rare animals at Wildlife Sanctuaries: Some of the most popular tourist spots include the Salim Ali Bird Sanctuary, Eravikulam National Park, Chinnar Wildlife Sanctuary, and others.
